Nice recipes.
We just put the tomatoes on the windowsill and they eventually ripen, no matter how green. Have you tried fried green tomatoes?

I went to make some broccoli and cauliflower with butter and cheese. For a side dish at dinner. I also was making hamburger patties. It didn't seem like enough to eat. My teen sons eat alot. (Yet low carb). So I went out to the garden. Got a head of cabbage. Shredded it, and cooked it along with the Broccoli and Cauliflower. Added in some diced garlic. Got to looking at the hamburger patties. Said what the hey. I cut them all up, addded it right on in with the the vegetables. It turned out well. The concoction was delicious. I put some saltless salt, and ground pepper on mine. Added in a small amount of red onion. Yummy!! I was visiting a friend earlier today. She is just starting the low carb diet. Doing Atkins. I don't usually like yellow or green squash. The way she made it it was really good. She used 2 medium of each. Diced onion, garlic. Then fryed it with some butter, on low. That was really good. I have a bunch of squash in the garden. Can't wait to use it up. To the gardeners in here. I have tons of tomatoes. But they aren't ripening. The weather has been cooler than the norm. High in the lower seventies. Then at night, in the fifties and sixties. What a weird summer its been here with weather. Any suggestions on how to get the tomatoes to ripen more quickly? I have at least 60 huge green tomatoes, that I can see right now. The cherry tomatoes are doing good though, they are ripening fine. |

I like green tomatoes and all. But not that much. Not to use the 60 or 70 I
have in the garden. My window sills are full of green tomatoes also. Some are turning red. Most aren't. Its the weather, has to be. |

I am going to wait untl the end of August. I just don't see the tomatoes
turning red anytime soon. Its not warm enough, the sun is not out enough. That is a great idea. I can pull all the plants, hang them upside down, along my back porch. I'm no gardener either, but my Dad would pull up the entire plants bearing the green tomatoes and hang them upside-down (the whole plant!) in the garage, and the tomatoes would eventually ripen! Good luck! Myron...in "Hurricane Alley" |

We're having the same problem here in Indiana. (I know it HAS to be the unusual temperatures we've been having---Indianapolis set a record low and high of 46/low 60s yesterday!!!) I don't know what the solution is for making them ripen sooner. I tried making fried green tomatoes using crushed pork rinds for breading; they were only marginally satisfying. -- Linda 296/208/160 LC since Oct. 13, 2003 http://home.att.net/~lewis_linda/index.html It is the weather. It is something else isn't it. I got a cold/bronchitis thing going on. From sleeping with the window open on the 50 degree nights. I like fried green tomatoes alot also. Just not that much.. LOL. I tryed atkins bake mix. The bake mix turned out a little on the clumpy side. "Sunshyne" wrote in message ... I been playing around, making different concoctions.
